With more than 20 years of domestic staffing industry experience, over 2000 long-term placements, and several thousand pre-screened quality candidates, MoniCare is the most trusted full-service household staffing agency in Chicago.

Our team of professional counselors has consulted hundreds of clients and interviewed thousands of candidates. We have an extensive knowledge of the Chicago household staff market. We recommend only the most experienced, reliable, and compassionate candidates to ensure your family’s well-being and peace of mind. Due to our rigorous standards, we accept fewer than 10% of applying candidates to our agency. The candidates we do accept are thoroughly screened, personally interviewed at the agency office, and are reference-checked by our licensed placement counselors. Upon placement, we provide the client with a comprehensive Background Check and all hire forms.
 

MoniCare is known for a consistently high level of service and long-term 6-month guarantee. 98% of our long-term domestic workers stay with the same family for as long as their services are needed. We take a personal, individualized approach to every search. We provide a complimentary Client Consultation to help define every client’s unique domestic position requirements.
